Regular PS5 and PC gamers won't have missed Helldivers 2, a multiplayer co-op shooter inviting you to invade planets and annihilate warlike alien races using democracy to protect Earth. The game uses a "stratagem" system to help you, giving your ship orders for material support or air strikes. These stratagems require you to enter a series of keystrokes, in the form of codes. Looking for these codes? We'll give them to you here!

Calling all gamers who've already skimmed the surface of Helldivers 2! From February 8, 2024, on PC and PS5, Arrowhead Game Studios, published by Sony, offers you a highly enjoyable journey into space, promising you a Starship Troopers-style all-out war on the far reaches of the galaxy, against various alien races such as the Terminids, an insectoid race that won't hesitate to attack you as soon as your back is turned.

The game's gameplay is relatively classic (you're armed, you aim, you shoot...), with the addition of a system of"stratagems" to be triggered by pressing a series of keys, a kind of code to make your ship intervene via material support (weapons, ammunition...) or more directly, via several kinds of orbital strikes. A very practical system, but with the display bugs we encountered when launching the game (this is normal, don't panic, it's one of the bugs the developers are working on to fix), it's difficult to reanimate an ally, for example.

And if you're not going to be thrown out of the game, the editors have decided to help you out with a list of basic stratagems (plus a few bonuses), so that you'll never find yourself stuck in the field, bugs or not (you never know). This list will be completed as you progress through the game. All that's left for you to do is spread democracy with your rifle... Get ready!
